The reported case
Roy Kirkpatrick, 37, the owner of a Lemon Grove business that operates as a barber shop and recording studio, is described as facing felony drug charges. The case is reported by the San Diego County Sheriff's Department and FOX 5 San Diego.
Search and allegations
According to the Sheriff's Department information cited by FOX 5, investigators searched the business as part of a warrant-related case involving a convicted felon. That person is identified as Kirkpatrick's half-brother. Investigators say the search uncovered drugs, including cocaine and amphetamine pills, as well as a firearm.
The reported allegations include possessing a controlled substance while armed and possessing controlled substances for sale, including allegations involving amphetamines. The supplied account does not establish the firearm's condition or resolve the underlying allegations, and Kirkpatrick should not be treated as convicted based solely on the reported charges.
Case status
Authorities say the investigation remains ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to contact detectives at 858-868-3200 or Crime Stoppers anonymously at 888-580-8477, according to the Sheriff's Department information reported by FOX 5.
